You really think they'll call it Super Smash Bros. Wii U? o_0
There is something wrong with you. As weird as Sakurai may be, that is the last thing he would do.

Agreed. I prefer Ray anyway. He looks cooler. XP
Agreed, he also has SO MUCH moveset potential, you have so many different moves you could tap into; Bombs, Pods, Legs, Guns, etc. All of which have a vast array of different effects.

Ray could just be such an awesome Smasher, WHY ON EARTH HASN'T HE BEEN ADDED YET!? I thought for sure he'd be in Brawl. Plus... well, then we might see a new Custom Robo, which would be amazing. the GC version was amazing.

I highly doubt it'll be called "SSB Wii U"

I expect they'll somehow create a distinction between the Wii U and 3DS versions by highlighting their fundamental differences.

SSB Stadium and SSB Quest actually make a whole lot of sense. I suspect the titles to be something like that.
Why would it be Quest? It's not even a term relating to fighting! :/

It wasn't, I love Mario Kart Wii though ,I bet I would wipe the track on there with you.

:phone:
Actually I'm not bad at MKWii, I think I have 8000-9000 points? Not sure, haven't played in awhile. But I've always managed to stay in the top percentile in races, even when racing against quadruple starred, 10,000 BP racers.

It conveys a more single-player experience.

Though I couldn't come up with a better word at the time, lol.
Well if it gets named like that on the 3DS then it makes sense I guess, Wii-U however will most likely relate to the multiplayer experience therefore a fighting term:

Which is why we said it would be for the 3DS. :/

LOOKING AT THESAURUS.COM, perhaps other names for the 3DS version could be Super Smash Bros. Quest, Campaign, Crusade, Tour, or Trek.

For WiiU, perhaps Super Smash Bros. Stadium, Arena, or Colosseum.

I suck at battles, I hardly play them, maybe just for fun, I mostly play WW's or Regional, I have about 7500-8500 myself, I just hate the items always being on lol...

I don't get why you are choosing names like those, those terms relate to environments, I'd say another actual fighting term would make more sense like:

Clash
Rumble
Strife
Ruffle
fisties :awesome:

It conveys the idea of showing off something, while at the same time having a fighting feel to it. In the 3DS version you go on a "Quest" and build up your character, then you transfer them to the WiiU "Stadium" to show how STRONG YOU'VE BECOME. So the names also reflect the connectivity aspect.

Use your head.

Ha! I'd still would wipe the track with you though, I can't really say much about Brawl lol..

:phone:
...Yeah...

Anyways, back to Custom Robo. How about instead of Ray 01 or Ray MkIII we have Ray Legend instead?

So I was thinking through some of the potential new franchises and I'm curious what type of symbols you think they'll have.

Punch Out would undoubtedly be a punching glove. There is no other answer.
Starfy... a clamshell maybe?
Custom Robo could have a cube....
S&P... maybe the game's aiming reticule?
Golden Sun... I'm trying to think of something better than a sun disc, but I can't =P
I stand by my choice of Megaman's being a screw. =P

Yea..you must be referring to berserker there. :troll:

I still don't get why they would have to go a different direction though, it's silly debating over names that might not happen lol..:awesome:
In my mind, the options are Super Smash Bros. (Placeholder) Wii U and Super Smash Bros. (Placeholder) 3DS, where both placeholders are the same name that relates to fighting. OR, the suggestions I've made. On store shelves, there has to be a distinction, and I like my way better than just sticking the system's name at the end. >:

Here is Custom Robo's design as I envision it.



As for Sin and Punishment, it should be the first Kanji symbol that represents the Sin and Punishment series. This isn't exactly a good example of it, but it get's the point across.



Also, here is what Ray Legend looks like.

Would other Rays work as alternate costumes? :I

To be an alt costume, it has to be the same general shape, be able to perform the same animations, and conform to the hitboxes...

I don't think they'll work. They have different body structure from what I've seen, but I could be wrong.

Maybe they could do what they did with snake and combine a couple together and represent him as just "Ray"
